    Thank you for sharing! and the laugh about not needing to run around the house naked anymore 🙃One of the greatest lessons I learned in the restaurant business is to always keep your cool no matter how insane and busy you are, because stressing out about it will get you nowhere and make it worse. This applies in all areas of life...especially with PD!

      With age, blood flow to the brain decreases b/c blood vessels produce less nitric oxide, a gas that expands blood vessel walls. Such disruptions contribute to changes in cognitive function that occur with age. #Exercise increases nitric oxide & boosts blood flow to the brain.

      Neurogenesis is the process by which new neurons are formed in the brain. Neurogenesis is crucial when an embryo is developing, but also continues in certain brain regions after birth and throughout our lifespan.

      Homeostasis is an internal feedback system that stabilizes and balances our body's chemistry, so that our organs work smoothly and efficiently with each other. Sickness is the disruption of homeostasis, which doctors treat with medicine.Oct 20, 2016

    Using your powers for hood instead of evil! Enjoyed this so much. My father has Parkinson’s probably 15 years now. He’s 82, still tries to make it to the gym and wants to get back to rock steady boxing. He is declining more mentally but my moms his hero! She drives him everywhere now. Keep up the good work. We love you from snowy Maine

    Hi Jmac
    I’ve watched most of your videos and you hit the nail on the head with so many of your observations. I was diagnosed 9.5 years ago. I had DBS surgery about 4.5 years ago. Without going into gory detail, I think it has been a net positive experience but who knows how the trajectory of my condition would have taken had I not had DBS. My tremors have been nearly stopped and I have no dyschonesia (sp?) to speak of. But freezing of gait has been horrible. I can barely walk and rarely leave the house. Fortunately, my wife has been a real help and I am 67 so I am now on Medicare and SS.

    • @JeremyMcdonald
      @JeremyMcdonald  6 месяцев назад

      Thx, Joe! Did you have freezing of gate prior to DBS?

    • @joecarr3337
      @joecarr3337 6 месяцев назад

      Yes but it has gotten much worse since I had DBS. My neurologist says that DBS doesn’t seem to affect freezing of gait. So it is impossible for me to tell whether or not DBS has made it worse or just has no affect on it.

    Thanks Jeremy! I am coming up on 2 years diagnosed on Sinimet, with probably 2 years before that undiagnosed. Your words are helpful as we walk this 'Long and Winding Road'! God Bless.

    I usually don't pay attention to motivational posters, but I saw one that has resonated with since PD entered my world. It's a scene of the Colorado River cutting through the Grand Canyon. The message was something like: "In the confrontation between river and rock, river always wins . . . not by strength but through perseverance." I think there's special message in there for us! BTW, I also think there's a message in your album/book backdrop every week. I just haven't been able to crack the code. Maybe you are telling us that Paul actually was the walrus; or that it was John...

      I like that saying! As far as the album selection, it’s a combination of my mood, colors and the occasional secret message!😂

    Thanks, JMac. It’s so true that PD is such an individual journey.
    Same same but different…for everyone… But it is so helpful to hear other’s stories, the good and the bad and know that there’s no right or wrong, it’s “what works for me”. Cheers ❤️

    Thanks for your transparency, Jeremy! I was just diagnosed in September and I was fortunate to catch it early. I took Carbidopa / Levodopa for about 6 weeks and decided (with my doc) to do some experimentation and cycled off my meds, as I know there are side effects from long term use so I am trying to not take it as long as I can. I have been logging my symptoms each day and seeing how my body responds to diet and exercise adjustments. Didn't realize you were in STL....I am just an hour and a half northeast of you in Springfield, IL. I have been thinking about doing another channel like this to document my journey. I have been struggling with severe apathy....I know everyone has slightly different challenges, have you or did you struggle with severe apathy at any point? How did/do you overcome it? I am very ambitious by nature, but this apathy has to be the hardest part of this right now, as it is a battle to get things done that I know I need to get done. Anyway, thanks again for your insight, great video, and keep up the good work!

    • @JeremyMcdonald
      @JeremyMcdonald  6 месяцев назад +1

      I struggle with apathy on a daily basis but I don’t know if it’s because I literally can’t get out of my chair to do the things I love or if it’s just PD.
      Honestly, music and exercise are the only things that really get me going. It can be difficult to start, but once I get going, I feel better. Thx for watching!

    Hey Jeremy, great video. During your consultation for DBS, did your MDS say your gait would be improved? Or just tremor?
